Works great!! Recent update causes the mobile app to go into potrait veiw until i physically rotate my device back and forth. Also casting is only avaliable on my home network not when I'm away. Id like to see that changed. Don't care for the backwards guide and would like full screen view and home town live channels added.

Had Playstation vue for 6 months. Everything was fine until the past week. When trying to access the app it asks to activate. It says "retrieving code" and then times out, never giving a code. Waited a day and it worked again. Now the same thing happed. Called customer support and they can't fix the problem. They told us their best guess was that somehow suddenly our internet wasn't compatible with Playstation Vue. We had no choice but to cancel our service.

Guide is cludgy and buggy to navigate. Will time out during long commercial breaks while casting. Cannot delay or extend recordings, which makes the dvr worthless during football season. And even when it works navigating the dvr is painful often forcing me to search manually for the latest episodes which for who knows why don't show up in my shoes list.

UPDATE: The App was patched within 24 hours and the issue appears to be fixed. I'm enjoying the new updates and have no complaints about the service. The latest update brought some good features but broke some functionality in the process. When launching the app on my phone or tablet while in landscape mode, the app will automatically go to portrait mode and stay there until launching a show. After launching a show it will go to landscape mode and stay there. It's obviously a bug, but is quite annoying. Giving the app a 3/5 until it's fixed.

The app isn't too bad but PSVue has gone in the tank. Very frustrating to get mobile restricted when wanting to watch away from home. Just switched to YouTube tv and what a difference. Watch any channel while traveling, unlimited DVR, no constant login with stupid prove I'm not a robot bs AND it's cheaper. Just canceled my PSVUE subscription after 1 1/2 years. They went from best to one of the worst in 3 months

Worked great until recent update. After the update I can no longer view my local channels with this app. This app keeps telling me that I am watching away from home. Very inconvenient.

I'm so glad the "mobile restriction" is finally removed. Thank you! Thank you also for fixing the "my shows" section on the app that said "network error". I only wish I could have all of my local channels & watch my shows: Family Feud, all of the judge/court shows like America's court, Judge Mathis, Judge Mablean, Dr Oz & The Dr's.

Ads in program breaks substituted with Crackle obnoxious Promotions, they repeat over and over, and other Ads appear to be public service promotions which also repeat over and over. I pay for this service and tire of the Ads. Will be checking alternative stream providers.

Num 1 problem for me: login verification with images that are extremely difficult to see clearly on small screens, thus prolonging the process. Annoying that backup arrow on top left rarely works as with prior version. Looking forward to see if/how viewing access works away from home on next trip.

03/08/18 edit. As if it couldt get any worse, now you are required to turn on your location just to use the app! im on my home wifi! Why does this app need my location info?? Mobile app still sucks. Sony doesnt care. Content is still mobile restricted, unless you sign in first on a home network. So if i up and decide to leave the state, and forget to sign in at home before i go, im just sol. Whoever is in charge of this app and this service needs to be fired. I have an account. I pay for the service. Sure would be nice if i could use it someday. All positive reviews are likely fake.

Please try again and re-rate. An issue was resolved around mobile playback.

The latest update now requires location services to be turned on. I don't like to be forced to turn that feature on now just to watch it. If the app update informed me of this I wouldn't have updated it.

After update can no longer use app - stuck at new portrait screen on my t95z plus 4k android tv box - please change back launch aspect and think about alt controls outside of just phone - will have to disc. service if I cant use
